Dispatch Care - Remote (US time zones required) - Full Stack Engineer

We make an app that helps hospital patients communicate with their care team, saving busy nurses time.

I think this would be a great role for someone with a few years of experience with Rails / mobile development and is eager to learn a lot and take on a lot of ownership.

Really interesting, has my mind spinning around the possibilities. Would love to be able to apply this stuff to filter my Feedly account - how hard would that be using Algorithmia?


I am not super familiar with the the feedly api (or how it works) but integrating with Algorithmia should be really simple. There is a registration link at the bottom of the blog post and you can check out the docs at http://algorithmia.com/docs.

feel free to drop me a note at diego at algorithmia dot com as well.


Just checked out the docs, looks like they have an easy call to mark one/multiple articles as read - so could have something running periodically filtering out stuff you're not interested in


A bit of an explanation.. I wrote this and I'm a Canadian (living in the US). Hence the tongue-in-cheek footnote.


Busy with work through this weekend most likely.. feel free to submit a pull request for log scaling: https://github.com/kevindavis/s3-pricing

Will obviously give credit..


https://github.com/kevindavis/s3-pricing

note, it was largely adapted from the pricing page on database.com


This was a wholesale scrape:

Why do you have the database.com logo in your repo?


Yup - downloaded the database.com pricing page to start and hadn't gotten to removing unused images etc. removed this and some other stuff.

There is definitely still a whack of CSS that doesn't apply :)

Thanks!


Good point - I thought about this a bit and figured I could take one of a couple of approaches 1) log scale (probably a bit confusing / harder to implement) 2) a switch between personal and business (could do similar switches for other settings like region

thoughts?


How about if you could double click on the slider to enter your own exact value. Also maybe throw in a checkbox for reduced redundancy?


let me know if folks have any problems / would like any additional features


Feedback to (imho) improve: 1. Mirror the top (prices) and bottom (description) 2. Add + sign between columns, = before last


Love the idea and implementation, thanks a lot for this!

Though more granularity, as it has been said, would be nice, this is good enough for me and lots of people as it is right now.

What I REALLY would like to see (and I know this is not really a feature request for this, but just an idea I'm throwing out there) is this made for other Amazon AWS services as well.

Common scenarios, like "I would like to run a wordpress site on an EC2 instance serving a couple thousand hits per month", or "I'd like to store a 1 TB backup of my personal computer on Glacier and retrieve it when my computer crashes (say in 1 year)".

The point is, like you said yourself, if you're spending a lot of money, you shouldn't trust anyone else, but having these "ballpark figures" would be really useful for people that are considering these services.


To that point, it's hard to get a handle on how many GET, LIST, POST, etc. operations one would routinely do in the course of a blog or something else. While that can get pretty complex (especially if you end up throwing varnish in to minimize calls to your datastore), a calculator including various rules of thumb would be great.


Unfortunately i'm unable to use it on mobile :-(


I was looking at this for video hosting costs - any chance the bandwidth slider could go a bit (well, a lot) higher?


Great to see someone so capable passionate about changing education
